Smoke coming out of hood
I have a 2002 Honda Civic EX, and was driving the car around fine, until I noticed smoke seeping out of the hood. It wasn't black smoke, more of a lighter smoke, also smelled something like burned rubber. When I opened the hood, the smoke seemed to be coming from the coolant reservoir..the antifreeze was bubbling, and as the car kept cooling down the level of the antifreeze decreased. The car temperature is fine, it was in the middle of the H and C. What can it be? A water pump? radiator hose leak?
Thanks.
Thanks.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Overheating or loss of coolant, heater blowing cold
